A group of fuming radical protesters displayed homemade wanted posters Tuesday for the ICE<\/a> agent who fatally shot a mother in Minneapolis before burning flags in Lower Manhattan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The band of demonstrators, from a group that identified itself as \u201cDare to Struggle,\u201d gathered in Foley Square on Jan. 13 and charged that recent ICE pushback has \u201cnot gone far enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an effort to show their diehard resentment of federal immigration enforcement and the recent killing of Renee Good, the group handed out and plastered makeshift posters depicting Jonathan Ross, the man who fatally shot the Minneapolis mother.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe murdered a woman who was driving away from him. You know, she blocked their vehicle. That doesn\u2019t mean that a federal agent gets to play judge, jury and executioner,\u201d a protester who gave her name as Indigo said, adding that she believes crowds hitting the streets need to go further. \u201cThe regular protest cycle, where we have a little parade, we say our peace, and then we go home, isn\u2019t anything to stop it. I think we need to go further than that.\u201d<\/p>\n

That further step appeared to mean setting American flags ablaze.<\/p>\n

Marching to both nearby immigration courts \u2014 26 Federal Plaza and 290 Broadway \u2014 protesters laid the flags on the ground, stomped on them, spat on them, and then used a lighter to set them on fire.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to do real s#!t,\u201d one protester roared. \u201cWe need to keep fighting no matter what. If ICE keeps doing their s#!t, if they keep kidnapping families, if they hold people hostage, if they pepper spray babies in the face, we cannot just keep going about our normal lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

It is unclear how flag-burning, considered by many as an unpatriotic act, would convince most New Yorkers to oppose ICE\u2019s actions.\n<\/p>\n

Flag-burning remains a protected act of free speech under the First Amendment<\/a>, as the U.S. Supreme Court has previously ruled. President Trump sought to prosecute flag-burners under an executive order he issued last year, but such an order is unenforceable without a constitutional amendment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

New York City has seen daily protests since the killing of Renee Good and the ramping up of ICE enforcement throughout the country. On Monday, more outrage grew after a City Council staff member was detained by ICE during an immigration hearing. Many elected officials and New Yorkers have peacefully demanded the removal of the Feds from the streets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the U.S. Justice Department has indicated it would not criminally charge Ross for Good\u2019s death<\/a>, sparking further public outrage and mass resignations from the DOJ\u2019s Minnesota district.<\/p>\n
